The new scheme for lighting moving trains by electricity is promising one. It will take the power for the dynamo directly from the car axle. But the distinctive feature of the device is an automatic governor, by which, whether the train is running fast or slow, uniform intensity of light is secured. If such contriVance can be made to work satisfactorily it will overcome difficulty which has been the serious defect in all former methods for producing light from the movement of the car. It will also be some improvement over the Julien system, be- cause, while it will still be necessary to carry small storage battery in each car for use when the train is slowing up or at a stand-still, the added weight, which is the essential fault of the independent storage system, will be considerably diminished.
 The way doctors disagree is well illustrated in the last number of the Epoch. That pa per contains three articles on the way to live in hot weather. Two of them were by phy sicians-both noted in their profession. Dr. Willard Parker of New York advised wearing light colored clothing because it repels the heat while dark colors attract it. pr. Cyrus Edson of the New York health department said it is better to wear dark clothing because the radiation of heat from the body is so much freer, and he cited the animals of the

Lydia, meanwhile, sat down and penned
hasty line to Miss Gulnare. It read thus:
90 have not only beon successful in my
efforts, but have found, as was inclined to
suspect Miss Rochefort an old friend OF
mine. will lunch with her and be with
you later in the afternoon"
Lydia said nothing with regard to Fair
fax or the abduction and, of course, Natalie
did not refer to either.
Gradually tho color returned to the Prin-
cess checks, and she came To realizing
sense Of the present. But ever and anon,
lydia observed that some chance remark
would remind her Of the past and that same
weary, pi,sous leok would again return 10
her faco For moment she would forget
herself and murmur In an absent-minded,
lingering manner This was not the Natalie
of old. Where was the staid reserved That
gentle flrmnessl That perfect self-control
and admirable dignity
Lydia began to think over the matter.
"If Natalie really loves him l must bring
about o reconciliation. The effect Of u
union with him would, 1 know, he conster-
nation in and fiat disownment by her own
family; but disappointment to Natalie
would mean gradual decline and death, /
believe say, then, that IL there Is to be
suffering, her family can better endure 1t
than she.
"On the other hand, II her present de-
precision should chance TO be only tho result
of pining under confinement or disappoint-
ment in misplaced friendship, the sooner
she leaves here the better"
Thus reasoned the practical, yet warm
hearted woman. And she resolved to make at
least one attempt TO bring them together
again.
But no ono with any degree Of certainty
can lay plans for the future.
The Greeks say there is an avenging
Nemesis on the track Of an uniformly lucky
man, and that when he seems most fortu-
nate tho man is overtaken by his Nemesis,
and from that moment begins his downfall
The Nemesis had at last caught Fairfax.
Everything as before it had seemed to fa-
vor, now seemed to initiate against him.

rairfax's law had dropped during the first
part Of tho recital but, rs tho captain pro-
coeded, he became more and moro aroused.
His old-timo hre; his quick decision; his
fertile invention, allreturned to him. Retro
spection, reflection and disappointment
must be cast TO the winds. Action, instant
action, was the word
Looking over Nebbitt's telegram las
translated from the cipher dispatch) he
found it corroborated the captains utter
anccs. All dreaminess, moodiness was ban
ished. Fairfax was himself again.
'iCaptain," said he, "be ready to leave at
q moments notice. l shall not, for / can
not, go back with you; but all whom you
brought, with the addition OF Lady Lydia
Broadacros, her aunt and their servants,
will return in the Namovna.' 1t is now two
O'Clock. By five o'clock precisely they must
be ready to start"
"Aye, aye, Mr. Fairfax. That's busi-
ness,n said the worthy officer, his head
nodding approvingly.
But how was it that Louvait and Leroi
had discovered the whereabouts Of Nataliei
Simply because the gentleman who had
seen her at the village church the first Sum
day after her arrival, and had spent the
rest Of the day pulling out her identity,
soon afterwards returned to his city homo,
and, being man OF prominence, had been
interviewed by o journalistic friend. In
talking about his summer at Mount Desert
he had inadvertently mentioned the fact OF
seeing some strange woman there who
strongly resembled the Princess Natalie
Radziwill.
"Of course,"he added, laughingly, ait was
only resemblance
Nevertheless, journalist is often at his
wits end for news, especially when 1t must
be furnished at regular periods; and this
especial journalist, at that particular time,
CHANGED to be in that predicament Thus
it happened that his weekly letter to q Lon
don society paper contained, among others,
this little Item:
"A woman bearing a strong Resemblance
10 the Princess Natalie Radziwill Is at Bar
Harbor, one Of our fashionable Atlntic
watering places. If she DO the renowned
beauty, she has chosen TO conceal her
identity under the nom do plume Of Miss
Rochefort-"

tween the joints Of his harness" And this
bow, drawn OF venture, sped its arrow
straight to the mark, which was Louyais
and Leroi.
Those two worthless, in their eagerness to
get information relative to the mysterious
case, were in the habit Of perusing all the
prominent dailies. They both read the fore
going item, and Immediately arrived at the
conclusion that it furnished the long-desired,
genuine clue.
Putting this and that together, they made
keen and untiring researches, and each
separately arrived at tho second conclusion
that no theory was so reasonable as the one
that Louvait, about month previously, had

One Of them moved toward the cabin, but

down the passago-way.

At the Ferry lay the elegant transfer

nished with new propeller-wheel and was
speedier than ever.
Going into the engine-room, Louvait en-.
